Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't make me give you more than my kisses
I need you to go slow and steady
Don't make me love you till I'm ready
Ooh, oh yeah
Why you want to rush into my life
Don't you want to stop and get to know me better
And if we're meant to be we'll be together, oh oh
Stay around just slow it down
Till we find out if we got what it takes
Don't make me love you till I'm ready
Don't make me give you more than my kisses
I need you to go slow and steady
Don't make me love you till I'm ready
Everything I know about you so far
Makes me believe that you're the one for me
But there's still a lot that's on my mind
And I need time before we go further
Don't you see
So hold me, fold me, but don't be
Thinking I don't want you too
Don't make me love you till I'm ready
Don't make me give you more than my kisses
I need you to go slow and steady
Don't make me love you till I'm ready
Don't make me love you till I'm ready
Don't make me give you more than my kisses
I need you to go slow and steady
(Till I'm ready baby)
Don't make me love you till I'm ready
It's better with a little bit of mystery
Let's wait till we have a bit of history
Behind ourselves, ooh ohh yeah
We don't got to be in such a rush
We can live for the moment if we trust
We'll be right here tomorrow, oh yeah yeah
Don't make me love you, ooh, ohh ooh
Don't make me give you, ooh ohh
I need you to go, ooh yeah
Don't make me love you, oh, oh, oh yeah yeah
Don't make me love you till I'm ready
(Till I'm ready, ooh ohh)
Don't make me give you more than my kisses
I need you to go slow and steady
(Slow and steady)
Don't make me love you till I'm ready
Don't make me love you, don't make, ooh ohh
Don't make me give you more than my kisses
I need you to go slow and steady, baby
Don't make me love you till I'm ready
(Ready, yeah yeah)
Don't make me love you till I'm ready
Don't make me give you more than my kisses
(More than my, love ohh oh)
I need you to go slow and steady
Don't make me love you till I'm ready
Yeah yeah

Don't make me love you till I'm ready
I'm not ready to fall in love with you, please be patient
Don't make me give you more than my kisses
I don't want to give you anything more than just kisses right now
I need you to go slow and steady
I want you to take things nice and slow with me
Why you want to rush into my life
Why are you in such a hurry to become a part of my life?
Don't you want to stop and get to know me better
Can't we take the time to really understand each other?
We got all the time in the world tonight
We have plenty of time to spend together, no need to rush

If our relationship is meant to work out, it will happen on its own
Stay around just slow it down
Stick around, but let's not move too fast
Till we find out if we got what it takes
Let's see if our relationship has the potential to go the distance
Everything I know about you so far
Based on what I know about you, you seem like the one for me

However, I still have some reservations about our relationship
So hold me, fold me, but don't be
Please hold me and comfort me, but don't try to push me into anything
It's better with a little bit of mystery
Our relationship will be more exciting if we leave some things to be discovered over time
Let's wait till we have a bit of history
We should wait until we have a deeper understanding of each other's pasts and experiences
We don't got to be in such a rush
We don't need to hurry into anything
We can live for the moment if we trust
If we have faith in our relationship, we can enjoy being in the present moment together
Don't make me love you, ooh, ohh ooh
I'm not ready to love you just yet
